Best Buy v. Blogger bruhaha

This post is just to echo the support from Xeni at BoingBoing for their defense of Scott Beale’s post at Laughing Squid. It looks like Beale has been served with a cease and desist letter for commenting (just commenting mind you) on an alleged trademark infringement by the group Improv Everywhere. They are apparently selling t-shirts that resemble Best Buy uniform shirts but have cleverly substituted their own group name in place of the Best Buy logo (pictured below). I love it when the internet community mobilizes against this sort of silly protectionist garbage. Power to the people!
